Get Out Of The Way
by Kathleen HighamWe are more than conquerors
It's what our Lord has said
Get out of the way!
Only then can you be led.
Often we are running hard
Running in the wrong direction
Get out of the way!
Then wait for His correction.
Our lives can be a miracle
There is nothing God won't do
Get out of the way!
Let His spirit come through.
Who carried the Cross unselfishly?
Falling to the ground in sorrow
Get out of the Way!
Make room for a new tomorrow.
We need to surrender completely
For just a moment, step aside
Get out of the way!
Let go of that foolish pride.
Looking up you'll find Him
He hears your every plead
Get out of the way!
There is nothing more you need.
All your struggles will vanish
When you give the Lord control
Get out of the way!
Let Him step inside your soul.
Finally, the peace will come
There is no more to say
Get out of the way!
Then meet Jesus Christ today.
